ment appears, the words "TexReg" and the beginning
page number on which that document was published.

Texas Administrative Code
The Texas Admanistrative Code (TAC) is the official
compilation of all final state agency rules published in
the Texas Register. Following its effective date, a rule
is entered into the Texas Admir.istrative Code. Emer-
gency rules, which may be adopted by an agency on an
ir;enm basis, are not codified within the TAC. West
Publishing Company, the official publisher of the TAC,
releases cumulative supplements to ec-h prnted vol-
ume of the TAC twice each year.
The TAC volumes are arranged into Titles (using
Arabic numerals) and Parts (using Roman numerals).The Titles are broad subject categories into which the
age: :es are grouped as a matter of convenience. Each
Part :presents an individual state agency. The Official
TAC also is available on WESTLAW, Wes. s computer-
ized legal research service, in the TX-t.DC database.

tion number of the rule (27 indicates that the section is
under Chapter 27 of Title 1; 15 represents the individ-
ual section within the chapter)
